Tips On Handling Mistakes Within Your Company by akeentech(m): 6:59am On Oct 04, 2018
Every employee will eventually make a mistake one day. Whenever a mistake is made, there would be consequences. But, your response and reaction to the situation, as a leader and a manager’s take will dictate the actions the employees take.

#1. Analyze the situation in the best way

How enormous is the mistake? Is it one that ought not have been made but rather can be amended? Or on the other hand did it cost your company hundreds of thousands of dollars? For this case, both of these circumstances are going to have very different courses of action.

#2. Understand the employee

Has this employee committed an error like this in the past? Is this just a one-time issue or a habit? Taking to them about what occurred and why it happened will give you supportive in- sight. Perhaps they had a family crisis that put off their game or possibly they just have a poor hard work ethic.

#3. Refer to the company culture

We previously talked about the range of consequences, or all the reactions of which a manger can take. In the event that somebody has committed a similar mistake in the past, how did other managers react?

#4. Understand what type of leader you are and what you want to accomplish

Do you want your workers to be scared of you or do you want to encourage workers and support their actions? Do you want to be their friend, their leader, or both?

#5. Create a mental list of all your options and their impacts

You choose to overlook the mistake all together- however that might result in promoting ineptitude. Here you can publicly call out the employee- however that might ruin their confidence. You can have a three-strike rule. First, you can discuss the situation with the employees. You can also call a group meeting. Or a combination of all the options.

#6. Pick the option that you feel the most confident about

Think what the effect will be and how you want your company to be seen. Make the decision that bodes well i.e. the decision that makes the most sense. Sometimes, it’s not generally the best for the employee but rather it might be an activity that should be taken for the good of the company.

#7. Follow through on your actions

While it may be hard, don’t vacillate on the implementation. In the event that your company’s current plan for handling mistakes isn’t one that encourages learning or development. It might be an ideal time to update the strategy. Consider making a appointment with a business coach so as to see how changing the company culture could be beneficial and advantageous.

The process may require little changes or an entire upgrade of the current actions. A business coach would be able to reveal to you the steps to take and clarify the overall effect it will have on the company.

Those are the tips in handling mistakes within your company. Thanks for reading and feel free to add your comment in case any.

My uncle need to see this. A co-worker was ill and needed medical attention. So he put a call across to me to seek for my financial aid because he's was broke at that moment. So I asked him to come pick up what I had for him. Only for his motorcycle (Farm Bike) to be stolen outside of the gate. I reported at the police station. And made an official report to him as well. But he was like the co-worker is under me, used the motorcycle for unofficial purpose and that from my report, I sanctioned his use of the motorcycle (because I asked him to come pick up what I had for him). So we will have to replace a 4years old bike (bought at 155k) with a new one at a cost of 380k when the current selling price is 215k. E funny me sha. He has started deduction from our salary sha

There would always be mistakes in the office. What I have learnt is that the mistakes are never the main issue but what YOU do immediately you find that you have made a mistake. Always remember that.

I wish I was given an opportunity to rewrite my wrongs but I was fired by Federal Palace 7Hotel and casino because of a mistake I made on the date on my cv, I joined federal palace as a storeman last year July, this year, August precisely, internal recruitment avert was made, educational requirement was ND minimum as assistant purchasing manager, I was happy because I have worked as purchasing manager before and I have Bsc degree in Accounting, I edited my CV to reflect my experience as a purchasing manager in my former working place but my boss fired me and put a lady with ND as qualifications saying I was dishonest in my CV when I came in, that I didn't put my purchasing experience but only store. I beg him that I should be given another chance that I will rewrite my CV to reflect all my experience I. e store, purchasing, internal control and Account but he refused..so sad, I even brought my offer letters from my previous work place as a testimony and pleaded that they should visit the companies and make enquiries about me but they refused sacking me without any queries, since I join Federal Palace Hotel, I have not been found wanting in any where, I was not given any queries at all.... just sacking letter. it is well. my hope is in God and I know I have never done wrong but a big Mistake in my cv

The mistake on your CV might not be the only reason you were fired.
Apply elsewhere and forget about FPH

The mistake on your CV was a decoy. See the bold. She's the reason you were sacked.

Then if this happens to u as u described above, you deserved to be fired, even dismissed.

You got the 1st query, no change
Got the second one, still no change
Got a warning letter, no change
What kind of staff are u.
Ur boss must be a very patient person to allow you go through this b4 firing you.
